ARC received for an honest review

4.5 stars

Like Meg Ryan in When Harry Met Sally... yes, yes ,YES we are back in Vermont and the Shipley family.

I was over the moon when I found out we were getting more of the True North series, and as much as I have adored Griff Shipley in the past, I think his sister May is now my favourite Shipley out there.

Speakeasy is full of fun and sexy times, and full of heartbreak and frustration and gah, just everything

I adore Alec. I love how he goes for what he wants, that he understands May, even when she doesn't understand herself.

Griff though, ugh. He was such a douche to both May and Alec at times in this story - but I still can't help but love Gruff Griff!

Speakeasy also tackles some serious issues and they hurt my heart that our characters were dealing with these issues, however I was their biggest cheerleader.

Sweet, sexy, fun romance that I read in one go as I couldn't put it down.

Ms Bowen has made me want to drink cider - and beer - and I don't like either of them. It think it is time to plan a trip to Vermont.

I can't wait to see what she brings us next.
